AETHEAON'S FATE LIES IN THE HANDS OF A MASTER THIEF

As the power of Aetheaon's necromancer, Mors, who's known as the Plague-bringer, increases, Crukas makes an incredible surprising decision that no one, including himself, ever expected. Using his master thieving skills, he sets out to steal magical relics for the purpose of defeating the Plague-bringer before Mors' amassing undead army overtakes the kingdoms of Aetheaon. Unless Crukas succeeds, all the kingdoms fall under Mors' control.

To make matters even more difficult, a female halfling bounty hunter (Sparrow Birme) stubbornly pursues Crukas with the hope of capturing him and collecting the vast bounty on the renowned thief's head. But each time she's close enough to attempt capture, Crukas eludes her and she loses his trail. Frustrated, she teams with four greedy bounty hunters who are also actively searching for the thief. One of these bounty hunters, however, would rather turn in Crukas' corpse to claim half the reward than struggle with a live thief who might possibly escape custody.

Worse yet, Crukas and a traveling companion are cursed by an item he steals. Without a way to break the curse, Crukas continues his thieving journey in the hope of finding someone who can magically break the curse before his life ends. Should he fail in getting the items, he figures he's lost nothing, as Aetheaon will become a land of the undead ruled by a necromancer, and Crukas would rather be dead than undead. Should he succeed, though, he could die and be known as a hero, which isn't a title he desires.
